Smoking is harmful to health, and everyone understands this. However, when swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog, he could not resist the temptation to throw the harm caused by cigarettes to the body. Regular smoking can increase the risk of lung cancer, oral cancer, laryngeal cancer and pancreatic cancer, but also damage the cardiovascular system and induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Smoking not only harms their own health, but also makes people around them suffer from second-hand smoke and third-hand smoke, so it is imperative to quit smoking.
How harmful is smoking?
When lit, a cigarette can release a large number of harmful substances, which follow the blood transport mechanism and the metabolism hormone level is converted, thus releasing too many carcinogens to release radioactive substances.
Due to the ability of gastrointestinal motility, coupled with the transformed form of the lungs, the lungs and digestive system are continuously damaged by harmful substances in tobacco; Harmful substances also follow blood circulation and metabolism, spreading to all parts of the body, including the heart, brain, gastrointestinal tract, liver and kidneys, causing related organs to become cancerous.
At what age can I quit smoking at the latest, and my lungs can still be restored to health?
With age, all tissues, organs, cells and nervous systems throughout the body will undergo different degrees of degeneration and decline, and the lungs and stomach are no exception.
In each middle-aged and elderly person, the lung transformation function and excretion mechanism are weakened to varying degrees. When the degree of aging of the lung structure is high and the aging mechanism is high, it cannot act on the transportation level of various tissues and organs. If you still smoke, it will cause fibrosis of the lung structure, resulting in high inflammation of the lungs, unable to remove metabolic waste and toxins in time, and also affecting the functioning of breathing. Harmful substances in cigarettes are easy to accumulate in the lungs, which can induce lung diseases in the long run.
Studies have shown that after the age of 35, the form of lung function transformation and the level of filtration decline, the lungs are relatively weak, unable to fight against the damage caused by external pathogenic bacteria and tobacco poisoning, so that external microorganisms and carcinogens invade tissue cells and organs, thereby increasing the risk of cancer.
Quit smoking before the age of 35, make nerve cells and lungs resistant to nicotine, and then supplement with an appropriate amount of vitamins and fiber, then lung fibrosis may be converted to normal, and the lungs slowly return to their normal physiological form. However, quit smoking early and benefit early.
What are the benefits of quitting smoking?
1. Reduce stress
After people with a long smoking age suddenly quit smoking, both the pressure level and the vascular hypertension state are slowly decreased, helping to reduce stress and reduce blood pressure levels.

Tobacco contains nicotine, carbon monoxide, carcinogens, etc., which will destroy the moisture and collagen in the skin, promote the loss of nutrients in the skin, and accelerate the aging rate of the skin. As long as you quit smoking early, you can avoid these conditions and prevent the skin from aging prematurely.
3, the teeth are whiter
Frequent smoking causes toxic and stains to remain on the surface of the teeth, causing the teeth to turn yellow or black. Therefore, as long as you quit smoking early, you can avoid such conditions and reduce the risk of oral diseases as well as gum diseases.
